KOTOR: Hints, Tips, Strategies, Walkthroughs (no cheats allowed)

Please Help!! I am 42 hours into this game and am stuck on the unknown planet before the star forge. I cannot find the stabilizers for the Ebon Hawk to get off this darn planet! I have found 2 ship parts, one by the spaceship with the plasma mines, and one in the rancor cage in the Black Rakata base, but I still need to find the stabilizers. This is my second attempt at finishing this game, I have already had to restart once after 35 hours due to a freeze up. Please help before I go all dark side all over my XBox!

 

Search the landscape for bodies in that place with several rancor babies, beofre proceeding tot he Rakatan elder building. It's toward the left side of the screen. You'll know it; it has lots of invisible bombs.

Hmm so when you board the Ebon Hawk, does it tell you that you now have the parts to fix the hyperdrive? If so, you should be able to leave the system once you've fixed it, because basically all you need are the parts that lie under the ship with the plasma mines...

if you still can't leave, you HAVE to make sure the Disruptor Field around the planet is disabled. If you can convince either the Black Rakata, or the Elders to let you inside, you can then proceed through the temple, then downstairs, solve some puzzles there, talk to the computer, ask it if he could open the doors to the upper levels, and head back up... then walk way back to where you entered the temple and go through the door which leads upstairs... once upstairs... well, see for yourself just make sure that when you're done with all the 'business' upstairs you use the computer there to shut off everything that needs to be shut off in order to leave

 

OH GOD I HATED THAT PART OF THE UNKNOWN WORLD.

 

Meh, there wasn't much I liked about the Unknown World. The temple was cool, and it was nice being able to equip full Mandalorian armour... but otherwise it wasn't all that interesting.

Then again... there was that.

if anyone has enought credits make sure you buy a load of bombs.


buy the


plasma grenades and carbon and ion grenades.


they work on malak. and thats how i beat him.

 

i just bashed the crap outa him. Worked like a charm with 28 str and a 49 damage attack on both hands.

 

Does anyone know how many times you can beat Gelrood (the Pazaak player that got kicked out of the upper city cantina on Taris) before something happens?

 

Did anyone else find Darth Bandon extremely easy to beat. I mean I was On Maanan and wnet back to Kayskk to killed that do for the bounty hunters he appears and I just beat like that no problems. I mean hes Malaks apprentice.

 

Yeah, Bandon was kind of a pushover. I found him a lot easier than Calo Nord.

Then again, both times I fought him, I was pretty far along in the game. I usually fight Nord when I haven't leveled up that much.

*shrugs.

I was rather Munchkined-up as a Scout/Jedi Guardian prestige class, circa Level 15 or 20, and encountered Darth Bandon on my way out of the flooded Manaan research facility, when he *still* turned me into sukiyaki.

Took me around four player-character deaths to realize that the less I used my Force powers, the less he used his (to say nothing of his Dark Jedi acolytes flanking him). As they say, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, and I believe it was a combination of Adrenal Alacrity, "Force Push" feats, and my +8 Fortitude bonus (plus "Toughness" and lightsaber crystal "To Hit" bonuses) that finally turned -- pardon me -- the tide in my favor.

He was Force-choking the bejeezus out of us all for a while, though.

 

This is my first time through, and I was wondering if on the levathian, its possible to make it off before Malak arrives, and/or before the Revan plot twist is triggered. Also, when I fought Malak on the leviathian briefly, he seemed ridiculously easy, (except at the cut scenes). My character is not incredibly good, around level 14. Whats's up with this?

 

No, it doesn't matter how fast you get yourself free, Malak still shows up. It's the only way to advance the story. It's not really feasible that you'd end up getting captured by the Leviathan again and still manage to escape.

Yes, he is easy on the Leviathan, but that's just because the developers didn't want the player to constantly have to restart on an already frustrating level. He's more difficult on the STar Forge. Trust me.

yeah they drastically upgraded his defense and HP IIRC for the battle on the star forge

 

DS powers are by far a more lethal attack. Nord didn't stand a chance with my fear-freezing and lightning him, and neither will Bandon will I met up with the chap.

They'll be challenging the first time you play the game, but not second time round, when you're more experienced a player.

 

Bandon is a tough nut to crack if you fight him on Kashyyyk though... the two Dark Jedi he takes with him there are much stronger than the ones he takes with him on Manaan...

 

I haven't read anything because I'm avoiding spoilers, but I'm way stuck. I'm on Tatooine, at the Tusken Enclave part, and I can't get in. I have the disguises on, I have HK-47 out (I've had other people out too, still doesn't work), and they still attack me. I keep getting the small group of raiders attacking me, and when I walk up to where the turrets are, they attack me too.

So, firstly, is there something I can do to stop this? I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

And secondly, if there isn't, how do you destroy the turrets? They're immune to everything I tried. Thanks.

 

Your disguise isn't complete unless you equip gaffi sticks. If the Tuskens see your party in the robes, but carrying lightsabers and blasters, they will attack. Also, don't attempt talking to any of them. Your facade will be dropped immediately.

Just tried it again with gaffi sticks equipped, no go.

 

You need the robes on before you enter the Dune Sea with the Enclave entrance.

 

I'll have to try that next time. I got really frustrated so I just flew to Korriban.

 

...I just had a 10 minute battle with Calo Nord with T3-M4, and I won.

 

Hmm, I did a search on the boards and didn't find a whole lot of hits on the AC 17 Mandalorian Armor... anyone want to know about it

(please dont flame me if it's common knowledge... just trying to contribute)

 

Hrmmm.... I never heard of it. Is it a PC only thing?




»Who dares wins«

 

I found it on my first run through on the XBOX...


on the unknown world go to the right of the temple entrance (the place with the baby rancors)

There's a red colored pillar there.

Unequip all your weapons, some Mandalorians appear... (some is an understatement..)

Kill them, then loot their leaders corpse for a full set of Mandalorian armor (helmet and all) with AC 17...
